User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐Beautiful color photographs throughout the book make this a worth while purchase. The Kindle edition would be good on an iPad or Fire tablet but not on a regular Kindle. The text is adequate and provides useful information, but the style is awkward, as if translated from some Soviet-era text. (The book is from the 1960’s.) Overall I’m very glad I purchased this.
